pahlavi. you are watching c-span2. >> before i begin, please join me for a moment of silence for the courageous iranian people who paid the ultimate price for freedom over the last two weeks. [silence] >> thank you. the truth is that undeniable.

the so-called islamic republic is not the government of iran. it is a hostile occupying force that's hijacked our homeland. after invading five neighboring countries and sowing chaos across region, this machine has invaded iran itself using foreign terrorists, hezbollah fighters, iraqi militias, and other missionaries to slaughter the iranian people. this is no longer a repression. this is foreign occupation wearing clerical robes. just -- and bashar al-assad turned bombs on his own children. ayatollah khamenei and his thugs have committed mass crimes against the iranian people and

against all of humanity. and just like those other tyrannies, the islamic republic will fall, not if but when. the world must to this clearly. the battle in iran today is not between reform and revolution. it is between occupation and liberation. and iranian people have already chosen their side. their hands are bloodied but unbowed. yet the cost has been heartbreaking. the people of iran are being slaughtered in the streets and in their homes by a regime that shows no mercy. more than 12,000 iranians were massacred in 48 hours. one murder every 14 seconds.

childers hearted the wounded protesters in hospitals and executed them in cold blood. the regime collected ties of bodies with truck and force families to search unlabeled body bags. they refused return bodies for burial without payments for the cost of the bullets that killed their loved ones. and when the family cannot pay up to several thousand dollars and most of them can't, they pay the debt in unmarked mass graves. and despite allies you hearing from the regime, its blood loss has not diminished. the slaughter has not stopped. my brave compatriots still holding the line with her broken bodies but unbreakable will, need your urgent help right now.

make no mistake, however, the islamic republic is close to collapse. khamenei and his thugs know this. this. that's why they are lashing out like a wounded animal, desperate to cling to power. the people have not retreated. the dissemination has made one thing clear, they're not letting rejecting this regime. they are demanding a credible path forward. they have called for me to lead. the bonn between me and the rainy people is not new. it's been with me since birth, and it cannot be broken. even in exile, i have pledged my life to the service of the iranian nation. when saddam hussein invaded iraq, i volunteered as a fighter

pilot to defend my country against his invasion. today, as my compatriots called on me for leadership, i reaffirm my lifelong pledge by stepping into lead the movement that will take back our country from at iranian hostile force that occupies it and kills its children. i will return to iran. i am uniquely positioned to ensure a stable transition. that's not my opinion. that's the verdict delivered loudly and clearly other people in the face of bullets. large sections of the army and security forces have already refused to participate in the killing of civilians. they have whispered their loyalty to me. tens of thousands have already signaled their readiness to

defect, and this process has been underway for months. what's clear is both the public and members of the military cd as a national figure who can unite all of division forces from every background, ethnicity, republican monarchie monarchies, right, left, and everything in between. i have a comprehensive plan for an orderly transition which is ready to be implemented immediately. the iranian people are taking decisive actions on the ground. it is now time for the international community to join them fully. today i asked the world to do six things. first, protect the iranian people by degrading the regimes repressive capacity, including targeting the islamic revolutionary guard leadership

and its command and control infrastructure. second, deliver and sustain maximum economic pressure on the regime. block their assets worldwide. target and dismantle their fleet of ghost tankers. third, break through the regimes information blockade by enabling unrestricted internet access. deploy star link and other security medication tools widely across iran, and conduct cyber operations to disable the regime's ability to shut down the internet. fourth, hold the regime accountable by expelling its diplomats from your capitals, and pursue legal enforcement actions against those responsible for crimes against humanity. fifth, demand immediate release of all political prisoners.

sixth, prepare for a democratic transition in iran by committing to recognize illegitimate transitional government when the moment comes. supporting the iranian people is not an active charity, nor is it unwarranted interference. global stability itself depends on the removal of this regime. it's 47 years of exported terror, nuclear threats, and regional chaos must end. this does not require putting boots on the ground. the iranian people boots are already on the ground. they are the ones marching, sacrificing, and fighting for their freedom every single day. what they need from the world is resolute targeted support to

protect lives, amplify their voices, and hasten the collapse that is already underway. but let me be clear. with or without the world's help, the regime will fall. it will fall sooner and more lies will be saved if the world turns its words into action. a free democratic iran will not be a source of endless crisis. it will be a pillar of peace, partnership, and prosperity for the middle east and beyond. the choice is clear. stand with the people now, i watch the cycle of instability continue. as i have said to my compatriot compatriots, the noble and courageous people of iran,

particularly the young generation, i speak directly to you. know that you have commanded the world's attention and admiration. history just stands in awe of your bravery and your sacrifices. you are the immortal guard of iran. continue the fight as you have done so far. do not allow this regime to create the illusion that life is normal. after all the massacres, there is a sea of blood between us and the regime. the regime's severe repression killing and cutting off communications is trying to instill fear and terror in you, and to make you despair of continue the movement and struggle. but know that because of your

steadfastness and fight, thousands of military and security forces have not gone to work so as to not to participate in the repression. say the name of all these criminals. they will be prosecuted for what they have done. yet, justice alone will not heal all the wounds, but it will open the door to healing and the national rebirth. as for the day after our victory, i have a clear plan for the transition to democracy. millions of iranians inside and outside iran are united around these four core principles. iran's territorial integrity, separation of religion and state, individual liberties and equality of all citizens, and the iranian peoples rights to decide a democratic form of

government. the end of the regime will mark the rebirth of one of the most accomplished civilizations in history, for the future of iran and its people. iran is blessed with extraordinary human talent and vast natural resources. our people are highly educated, producing what is the highest numbers of engineers in the world with around 70% women. today, the corrupt regime waste -- in a free iran, our resources and ingenuity will try prosperity at home, and strengthen global supply chains, including america's. a free iran will be a game changer for peace in the middle east, and for iran's relations with the united states and the west. the iranian people love america and hate this regime.

after its collapse, instead of death to america, the world will find a nation that embraces america as a true friend. president trump brokered the abraham accords, bringing peace between arab nations in israel. i see extending this idea to a free iran to what we could call the cyrus reports come altering our ancient heritage of tolerance and partnership. the possibilities are endless. there will be a peaceful, stable, and orderly transition. my team of experts have developed a plan for the first 100 days after the regime's collapse, the long-term reconstruction and stability nation of our country. it is backed by business leaders and provides a detailed roadmap for national recovery. restoring economic confidence,

ensuring that essential services continue uninterrupted, and laying the foundation for prosperity in a free iran. a constitutional process will follow under international observation, allowing iranians to finally determine their own destiny through free and fair elections. a free and democratic iran that emerges will live at peace with our neighbors will be an agent of growth and opportunity in the region and the world. there are moments in history where the moral imperative for action is so strong that the ways of inaction becomes unbearable. this is one of those moments. the people of iran have reason to reclaim their country. history will honor those who stand with them.

long live iran. thank you. [applause] >> we will take a few questions. [inaudible] hud. [inaudible question] [inaudible question]

[speaking in native tongue] [speaking in native tongue]

[speaking in native tongue] >> can you introduce yourself? excuse me, sir. can you just introduce yourself? [inaudible] [inaudible question]

-- and your leadership they would be swapping one dictator for another. >> first of all, i let -- i am here to make history, not righted. second, you do then reigning people standing behind me and calling my name. this doesn't occur instantly. they've know my track record. they know my unwavering commitment to democracy and human rights. this is been my position the day i started and remains my position to this day. they know they can trust me because i have never seen the waiver from this. and ultimately what i'm trying to make sure is the final element that would produce iranians are in full control of their own destiny is to turn our back to them, a power that is been taken away from them by this regime which we're fighting today. that's my commitment, and they can trust be on that. [inaudible]

>> no. i have called bloomberg. no. reuters, please. >> there's a microphone coming. >> thank you. riley johnson for bloomberg. are you having any further conversations with which call for the trump administration? >> he's a sensitive times and i'm not going to discuss details of who i meet with and what has been discussed. but i can tell you, however, is that their strong support for the renew people and i believe that president trump is a man of his word and ultimately he will stand with every new people as he has said. >> treatment in russia broadcast, think a semester i have two questions. we saw your slide they're saying donald trump come help. what exactly does has been. what he hoped arbitral to do?

my second question is europe, especially germany. what do you hope for europe does to support your cause? thank you much. >> thank you for the question. clearly, president trump did say that if the regime was to hit their many people hard they will face serious consequences. there any people have taken his word as a man of his word, as i said. they know that unlike his predecessors that through was under the bus one time, this president is not about to get the same thing. that's very encouraging and empowering. number two, you ask me about european countries. look, we already are past the point of whether we should describe irgc is a terrorist or position or not and, frankly, i'm flabbergasted there still some countries that are not linked to take the next step as if they are supposed to worry about how the regime will retaliate. this machine is on its last leg. it's about to collapse and i think the world especially the democratic free world that

champions freedom and human rights and equality of citizens at the face of this regime should act now. call for them to start acting as opposed to talking. we need your help we need your action. we need to take all the steps that i've indicated in my opening remarks almost six elements. anything that can be done in that direction is a moral boost and actual act of support for the defenseless society and civilians that as you can see have been treated in the worst possible way. and the only hope they have is that their fight for freedom, their sacrifices will be less loss of life, based on your action, to expedite this regimes collapse. that's what the iranian people are expecting from you. and let me reiterate as a set again, we are not waiting for you to act to continue our

fight. we are. but imagine how much more we can protect more innocent lives from dying by acting and helping us today. these are critical moments that are game changers not just for us iranians but for the whole world. this is what we need from you, so help us. >> reuters. >> microphone over here, please. >> thank you. it an interview couple of days ago president trump actually expressed some doubts about your support inside iran. how are you planning to win him over, convince him that you do have the support that you say you do? also you were talking about thousands of potential defectors but the irgc and other forces have hundreds of thousands, so how are you going to assert your

control over this establishment? and are you anytime soon going to meet with president trump? are you making active effort? >> president trump has said that's up to the ring people to decide, and a totally agree. i've always said this is forgiving people to decide. and you think that many people have already demonstrated in great numbers who it is that you want them to lead to the transition i'm confident i the support of my compatriots as far as international leaders assess the fact on the ground and see who is capable of doing that. i believe i can and have the iranian people support. of course if anybody in the world is willing to up their many people achieve that goal, that's what in trying to do, to help them liberate themselves and attract as much support as a can't internationally to behind every new people and on the right side of history. as far as defection goes, this campaign that started months ago. it started, announced that

another press conference a few months ago. some of you may part about it. as we establish a system whereby people who want to defect, who want to indicate the interest to join with us have a secure means of communicating their intentions to us. since then tens of thousands have applied. many of them are from security forces and arendt, police, military, irgc and we're betting that as we're speaking. most important, the principle of having an exit strategy. on the eyes of anyone whose hand is not soiled in the blood of our many people will survive regime change. we are not talked about in metric he went on the disaster post-saddam hussein, post-class. i could have a failed state. for me to be able to guide a smooth transition, i'm counting on secret forces to be the element that keeps the country secure, protects people's lives and their livelihood, , and be

part of the solution. as a result we have already seen people indicating their cooperation. we are racing elements that refuse to be use as an instrument of oppression which is why the regime is not noe speak important elements from outside the country to be the instrument of oppression as they're running out of their own forces to do that with an inside iran. and all of this is an indication of the beginning of that collapse. hopefully, i have more support from outside world. as i stood in the opening remarks, i would expedite the process and would also increase the number of defections to be more rapid. so that we are not faced with remnants and resistance as much as possible. if there's ever going to be that there's festival can be 100% defection, hopefully khamenei will be joining bashar al-assad and moscow and be getting rid of

him. >> good morning, thank you. in london england we have iranian sleeper cells on the way to the israeli embassy accuse accusatory to blow up the embassy. we have a former iranian government minister living in north london, letting in a council house actually. why is it in britain and indeed the west for this islamic regime to focus? >> i want to make sure i understood your question. >> we have lots of sleeper cells and activities, three people were arrested trying to blow up israeli embassy some months ago. former government minister living in north london who supports soleimani. with lots of our many activities in the uk. connected with the regime there

and iran, psychic why is it in britain's interest and the west for this regime to fall? >> i glad you asked the question because, in fact, one of the topics that i raise some discussion had last time i was in london with the former prime minister's was exactly to explain to them the mapping of every estimate the version is using under khamenei's direct supervision through so-called centers through which the antagonist british citizens and, of course, many of those sleeper cells is your ticket. it doesn't stop in england by the way. or in america as well. we're trying to explain to various governments the whole methodology that the regime is using with assets to have on the ground in respective countries, not to mention money laundering pickles in many countries including in great britain. there are many ways they can push back against that and protect not only the citizenry of whether great britain or america but in what ways can next to why would you do that to

put an end to the regime. one thing that instead of becoming even more clear and a fact that the regime could be threatening the world as a last gasp we should not allow this regime to catch a segment be able to do further damage, which is why the strike is not just needed to their many people over, but also one way to completely dismantle the regime's aspect of threatening and cut off the chain of income that it uses to fund all of its operation including the sleeper cells which is why i'm also calling for any means to cut off a life to the regime which visits revenue from what is export or other means the fanfic we need to try the wealth of funds terrorism with the for all. against their many people and the world. >> sam rivers from the uk. two u.s. aircraft tears are

having we understand to the gulf and donald trump said help is on its way. but they may take up to days to get there meanwhile more and more people are dying. are you using losing faith in president trump? >> i believe the president is in and of his work, as i said before. how many days it might take, who knows? hopefully sooner than later but as a said before regard as i was is taken or not, we as iranians have no choice to carry on the fight. we are halfway across the river. there's a pretty back. we will continue. the quicker the action happens come the more lives can be saved and the sooner we can see the regime's collapse. the timing is of course informed and i still believe in the president commitment that help is on the weight. >> but does he need to do something today, tomorrow to help your fellow countrymen? >> i'm not the president a fight

of it all again say as iranians are of course right as we speak witnessing the canada masker that is the unprecedented in human history and this is why the urgency becomes quite clear. the timing i leave it to the experts to decide. all i can say is the sooner the better. >> okay. i'm going to call on -- [inaudible] >> thank you. [speaking in native tongue]

[speaking in native tongue] [speaking in native tongue] [speaking in native tongue] [speaking in native tongue]

[speaking in native tongue] >> a quick transition for those of you don't speak farsi. the question related to the regime's important for government in iran jesus repression i said this is a clear indication of the regime's weakness that they can even count on his own forces to do the job and has resorted to free people from the outside. reason for the world to realize that as this desperation act of the regime to try to utilize some people as lastgasp effort cannot be left unanswered which is why were calling for the world to help us out. >> thank you. asp, please. >> thank you very much. shone with asp. nice as you. could i follow up, you mentioned

the hands of arenas, but at what point is it too late for the intervention you talk about from president trump? could to be some talks over ten days of the help is way, these are incentives that could weaken the momentum? specific you said at the beginning there should be targeted of the revolutionary guards. do you mean necessarily military strikes? how should the revolutionary guards be targeted? >> it's never too late. any fight for freedom doesn't have a deadline. some of few reporters have deadline to make a report but this doesn't have deadline. we will fight until we win. that is a national of the iranian people. we're all going to fight until we win. the only question is what are the elements that can expedite it. any immediate issue remains what would hurt the regime most? by dismantling its apparatus of state terror and repression took a lot of it are the regime's

military elementary acids can most irgc targets. some calling for a surgical strike on those means. and i think should be quite obvious interview how do we can the regime's first and foremost means of instituting terror at home or terrorism abroad? and the targets are quite obvious. they're not going to hit the factor or a school or a hospital. clearly it's obvious what the targets should be. the regime knows it and that's exactly what those who decide have to decide what should be legitimate targets when you decide upon. i think that many people naturally say the people who hurt us the most should be the first one to be targeted. i think it should be quite obvious what should be done, in my opinion. >> cbs.

>> cbs here, newsmax. good morning. president trump has decided not to take military action up to the foot. he recently said the telecast.gov execution of an halted. is it your belief american intervention specifically military intervention is necessary for this current movement today to be successful? >> as i said in my opening remarks, iranian people are defenseless on the streets unarmed against the region that unleashing on them with military weapons, ak-47s, trying to rip them apart. these are the odds of that are not there for a nation that is trying to overcome a regime by means of protesting peacefully on the streets. so the only way you can equalize the playing field is to help them have a better chance by

weakening the regime's oppression. these are mostly paramilitary institutions such as the irgc. irgc has been the main instrument of the regime's repression at home and abroad support any strike on those entities would facilitate our task, would prevent or loss of life and would rake in the regime to appoint that resistance would be futile and we will try to encourage the regime's top echelon to ultimately depart and the rest of society when of the regime is not totally crumbly and we're prepared to collect the rest of them will then probably on the people and will stand with him and hopefully we can into the face of transition. this is pretty much the scenario i see unfolding that right now the decision is in the process of being made are not going to speculate where it is right now. i'm not going to go follow every headline in do cycle.

there's a lot happening and unfolding and i would rather not speculate. all i say is if action happens great. if it doesn't we will still fight. the difference is it will be longer, costlier to assassination, or loss of life. and if the world does care about the ring and loss of life, then they better act and equalize the playing field for us so we have a better chance to succeed with my scheduled unless death in the process. >> thank you. robert from the guardian. you have said you have a detailed plan for the transition when the regime falls. does that include establishing a constitutional pressure on the one your father was head of? or to force yourself as transition figure. if so, how with the different from the thought of ayatollah

khomeini in a dissident who said some of the relation to a transitional figure would return to home and retire after politics on to set up a repressive opposite? and you get a pledge it would not be a second ayatollah khomeini? >> i invite all of have to do is press conference and i've some of her experts ability to explain of this process in more detail, one of the projects that esther diffused ego is called ipt, iran prosperity project this approach is meant to address all of the issues beginning with the first 100 days of transition to stabilize the country. short meter range anywhere between six months to two years of the rest of anonymization face and told my iran's development down the line. many documents have been generous with help of legal experts, economists and others to explain the chronology of

events. but a relationship to your question, the way we have proposed the process to get is that the minute the regime collapse of the transitional takes control. it works towards working in a process where we have its own judiciary branch, executive branch legislative branch, temporary parliament to oversee the elections of ultimately national assembly. by first outlining their many people after four months time in many of the debates what is the form they would like to have as future system of government? by means of referenda that whatr the majority of their many people decide, their representative and because you simply be cast with the responsibility to draft the constitution of this next system and present that constitutional project to the nation. the nation will have an opportunity to either ratify that proposed constitution, or

if not, send it back to that constitutional assembly to rewrite it whatever ways it feels it can submit it to a second referendum. if in the second referenda there still no consensus in majority, that constitutional assembly would dissolve. the new constitutional assembly will be created at the process will again occur until finally we have a ratified proposed constitutional project. once that happens, the first part of it of this new democratic be elected and the first government of the new system will be elected. if it's a republic, the president will be elected. if it's a monarchy, the prime minister will be elected. at that time the transition government dissolved itself and passes over and hands over the responsibility and the authority to the new elected government

based on that new constitution. this is the process from beginning to end. my role in all this is to lead this transition, help with the transition assistant structure, bringing all the elements, check all the boxes because the country has to function. they want won some of his e treasury the train has to run on time. basic services have to be provided, and at this stage what we are inviting to the quickest smoothest transition, the maximum on the one hand,, of the military to military forces to play the role and civil society and bureaucracy to be also in phase to be able to address so the majority of these incidents are already in place. and again, against a model of -- recount in majority of these people to remain in their jobs. want to picture the world can help us so the transitional government can pay salaries so people can maintain the jobs and do all that. all of these things have been

studied and explained in detail. and as i said i invite you to study this, whenever said page of it and the said river experts you, we can further detail expand all do what is exactly we will propose. but in a nutshell this is what we're doing and this is the process you can expect. >> thank you. >> french television. the government has been closed for being too soft by saying the vision is to brutal. what is your message to the president of france and what do you expect from him to put pressure on the regime? thank you. >> again, i think the more we have from the international community, and france is very

important country. i know many french people. i know their sympathy and their love of iranian culture, whatever it is that we stand for. we've had very good relationship in the past. the question is what is the behavior of this regime? does it -- any simple way to evade principles that france stands for? all those principles we are fighting for. so as as a present of a democ secular like nation, and is said one of the top principles is separation of church and state, i think the message should be clear. that the french people and its government stand on the side the people who seek the same liberties, the same human rights, the same freedom of religions and a set protection of equality of citizens under the law that the french people enjoy in france. we would like as arenas to have

that in iran. so this is an important message of a continuing to go and appease a regime that is murdering its own people. or is it time to abandon that path and now stand with the iranian people and help them in their liberation? a very important choice to make and i advise the french president, if i may, to heed the call of millions of iranians are turned toward the free world and say what says you? are you with us? and help the french president would say at the end of the day that he stands with the iranian people. >> to to follow in french. [speaking french] [speaking french]

[speaking french] [speaking french] [speaking french]

[speaking french] [speaking french] [speaking french] [speaking french] >> the lady here. [inaudible] >> would you -- a microphone. >> thanks, michelle within. you mention you wanted to see the ayatollah in exile in moscow but the russians are providing political cover for the iranians of the u.n.

today called netanyahu 2% himself as a peacemaker. what you think the russians are doing? do you think trump could believe the russians in this case? >> once the dust settles, as first during people are concerned, and how in this stable geopolitics things sometimes unfold in one direction or the other. even moscow is considering what if this machine is no longer there, then what? the chinese are doing the same. they have been very quiet lately, not taking any position. so i would rather not speculate but simply say that a stable iran, a strong carbon, a democratic iran will not be antagonistic to anyone's

interest, including russia and china. what what is iranians is a fair deal. we don't want to be taken advantage of an lopsided unfair deals that is against the national interest of o-ran simple because of corrupt regime and offering concessions left and right. we want to have a fair relationship with everyone. it's a normal interest for us to look towards the west primarily because where focus on democratic free nations to partner with an alliance and cooperation and, of course, our immediate neighbors which is why it's crucial for the world to understand that different iran will be committed to cordial relations with our immediate neighbors come with israel, the sound is and the rest of the in the arab world. and the rest of the countries in our immediate neighborhood. and that extended what else to provide we as a sovereign nation are able to protect our

liberties and rights. we will deal accordingly and -- based on mutual respect. that's the end of the subject. so whatever we see now happening depends on the clarity of the ultimate outcome. the more the of any people and power, the more we can then tell the world we are the arenas like this regime are committed to peace, committed to stability, committed to improve the lives of people by means of trade, commerce, cooperation and everything else that this regime has taken away from us. iran today should invent the next south korea of the middle east. iran at the time had higher gdp than south korea. today we become north korea. not because we don't have the human resources. not because we don't have the natural resources but because we

have a government that doesn't give a damn about the people, that if exploited our nation resources, has impoverished our nation while funding radical extremist terrorist groups and proxies in the region and beyond. have arms stretched out all the way to let america and are still standing there only because the delay in the collapse of the result of appeasement. the game changer is enough is enough. the game changer is these people deserve better and they prevent that i like this regime that hates the western world in particular and particularly the united states, that wants to wipe out a country off the map of the world. we as iranians are committed to different future. i went to israel two years ago,

to assure that we are the descendents of cyrus the great, who 25 centuries ago helped jewish slaves be free from the babylonian government, help them rebuild their temple in jerusalem. i i country that in the second world war gave refuge to jews escaping the tyranny of hitler. a a country that unlike this regime wants to cordial relationship with the traditional and the rest of our nature verse pick a country that holds high in our principles and values the first declaration of human rights that cyrus the great provided that was inspiring people like thomas jefferson and was included into the american bill of rights and constitution declaration of independence. we have pride in that, of the children of cyrus are not

telling you that we are committed to that. that's what i talk about cyrus the cords is in that spirit. this is not me saying that this is our nation of its culture,, its national identity. this is your truest friend that is not being clobbered as you sign the treaty. by regime that is on a rainy come as a threat to all of us. this is what's at stake center at the end of the day. it's better for all of us to now think about different the world will be with a liberated iran. this is our moment in time. this is iran's chance to finally after 47 years liberate itself. and i hear people from across the world, i see how much of sympathy now there is for iranians come from australia, to argentina, to canada, to sweden, too many, many, many countries. that are standing with the iranian people. the people, too. now it's time for their governments to be online and on

par with the expectation of various countries that are demonstrating their support for their many people there could even they are still respected governments to act. such as iranians asking the outside world to act. people in different countries are beginning to ask the governments to act about that such governments hear their people and our people and stop listening to the regime that has been lying to them essentially everything onto power by yes, trying to find another opportunity to get out of this quagmire. let's not give them that chance yet again. >> last two questions. will. bbc persian first.
